Robert Adams : The worst thing you can do in the morning is turn on the TV and read the newspaper. That is the worst thing you can do.

The best thing you can do in the morning when you wake up is to ask yourself, " Who am I? " and "What am I doing here?"

The worst thing you can do at night before you go to sleep is to think
about your job or your family or your finances or your sicknesses or
your...all the other things that has been going on in your life.

The best thing you can do before you go to sleep or when you're
sleeping, going to sleep is to inquire, "To whom do these activities
come? To whom has the days activities come? Who has experienced these
days activities".

So you see it's up to you to do the right
thing. Wherever you go in this world you still have to take yourself and
no-one can transcend your mind but you. No-one can cause
self-realization but you. No-one can awaken you but you. You are the
one. The world really has nothing to offer you. Your dreams have nothing
to offer you. Look to yourself. Look to eternity within yourself. Learn
to love yourself. When you're loving your self you're loving the
universe for the Self is the whole universe.Robert Adams

Sadhguru The more deeply you are embedded in your karma, the more deeply your body reacts.

There is someone who, if you smear his face with some filth, will just go, wash his face well and come back.

Someone else, if you smear his face with some filth, he will be revolted and puke.

There is someone else who’ll get angry, irritated and disgusted with it.

Somebody else may just fall dead; it’s possible.

It depends on how strong your karmic structure is, accordingly, the reaction is that powerful. As your karma becomes lighter, your reactions become lighter. That means your whole life and existence is moving more from unconsciousness to consciousness. That’s why your reactions are becoming less. The more unconscious you are, the more reactive you are. The more conscious you are, the less reactive you are.

Robert adams : When I was around ten years old my uncle took
me to see a hypnotist. He was a pretty famous fellow at that time.
He was also a magician. There must have been about four hundred
people there at Town Hall, downtown New York. He picked out
certain people. He asked for volunteers first. I told my uncle,
"Why don't you volunteer?" He said, "OK," and he did.

And there were about twenty five volunteers who sat on chairs on
the stage. He spoke to each one of them. He told most of them to go
back to their seats. He picked five people out of the bunch. My
uncle was one of them. He proceeded to hypnotize them and he
made them all do funny things. What I really remember is my
uncle. When he was finished, before he un-hypnotized everyone and
brought them back to this reality, he said to my uncle, "When you
come out of it, you will go back to your chair, but when I clap
my hands, you will imagine there’s a black widow spider on your
neck." And I was really laughing. He clapped his hands first and my
uncle came out of it, out of the trance, and he said, "Was I
hypnotized? I doubt it." He went back to his chair. The hypnotists
started talking about something else. Then he stopped and clapped
his hands. As soon as he did that, immediately, my uncle started
squirming and slapping his neck. And he told me, "Robert, there
is a spider on my neck. See where it is." And he stood up
and started wiggling and slapping himself all over. The hypnotist
clapped his hands again and my uncle came back to the natural
state, the human state. When I looked on his neck there was a
red welch on his neck, like a spider bite. Where did that come
from? There was no spider. Where did the bite come from? Who
put it there? Student: Did he get sick at all? Robert: No. He
didn't get sick at all. When the hypnotist clapped his hands
everything came back to normal. But the welch, the red mark, was
still there. The same power that caused the red mark to be
there causes this universe to be here. In other words, no-thing.
There is no cause for this universe.

I recall when I was
about nine years also, I used to run out every day when it
snowed in my t-shirt, and play in the snow. I would do this every
day. My mother didn't see me. I had fun. I'd throw snowballs,
build a snowman, yet I never caught a cold. One day my mom saw
me going out in a t-shirt and she screamed at me, "Robert, get
back in the house and put on your coat this instant or you'll
catch your death of cold." Sure enough that day I caught a cold.
Why? Because I identified with what my mom told me. After all
she's my mom, she must know what she's talking about.

Lets take
something else, a cancer. What we call cancer, again, is
impersonal. Yet when some of us identify with it we appear to
have it also. If we looked at cancer like we do a cold, the cancer
would disappear by itself. Yet what is the first thing that
comes to your mind when you've been diagnosed as having cancer?
Death, and so you start deteriorating. But in reality there are no
cancers. There are no colds. There's nothing but consciousness.
Yet, you are seeing the world, you are believing the world and you
are identifying with the world. It's not the world or any
condition that has come upon you. You have created your own
condition, by what you have accepted, believed, and identified with.

Take a look at your life right now. Think what's going
on in your life. Are you happy, are you miserable, are you
healthy, are you sick, are you rich, are you poor? It doesn't matter.
The only thing that matters is everything you are is what you have
identified with, somewhere, somehow. There is no power outside of
yourself. There is no world outside of yourself. There is no
creation outside of yourself. There is no universe outside of
yourself. There is no God outside of yourself. You have given
birth to all these things. You are playing a game with yourself.

Robert Adams : It's like this. Imagine you're looking through a keyhole and all you can see through the keyhole is someone being killed by someone else. You see a man killing a woman through the keyhole, and all of your concepts revolve around that. That's how we see the world, through a keyhole. We see a part of the picture. But lets say you open the door instead of looking through the keyhole. You would look to the left, and you would see perhaps in a previous life the woman killed the man. It's in reverse. Now in this life the man is killing the woman, and you would understand what's going on. Then you would go further. You would look to the right and you would see they’re both together again, laughing and having a good time, and you would realize that no one is killed and no one kills. It's all a game. You would see the complete picture. But as long as you only look through the keyhole you're going to see a limited view of things. Then you become judgmental.This is why we're told not to judge, because we only get a limited picture. Everything that you see in your life is looking through a keyhole. When you awaken the door opens, that's all. You then understand why everything is happening, and where it comes from. This is the reason why sages remain so calm and they never react to anything. Not because they don't care. They see the whole picture. The door has been opened for them. And they see the person who wins the lottery and has fifty million dollars. They earned it, somewhere, somehow. There is no such thing as luck. There is no such thing as chance. And then they see the end picture, when they wake up, they laugh at the whole game. For no one lost anything and no one won anything.It's like a movie. The movie has a beginning, a middle and an end. And when the movie is over there's the screen. The screen is the reality. The movie is just impressions upon the screen. All impressions have a beginning, a middle, and an end. Most people go through their life as an impression. They react to everything they hear, see, smell, touch and taste. They're always angry, they're always mad because they are not getting what they want. This is looking through the keyhole.

Blogger's Note

One thing that is important to note here is that, whatever I may write about Isha Yoga, it is always about my perspective of Isha Yoga and limited. It can never give a complete view of Isha Yoga. To know about Isha Yoga is infinite.
